1. Edit file cart.php, after next lines:

PHP Code:


		
			
...........

x_session_register("dhl_ext_country_store");

x_session_register("ga_track_commerce");

x_session_register("initial_state_orders", array());

x_session_register("initial_state_show_notif", "Y");

x_session_register("enter_as_anonymous", false);

add next lines:

a) return to the last page;

PHP Code:


		
			
#back URL when cont. shoping:

x_session_register("back_url");

if ($mode == "add")

{

    $back_url = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'];

}



$smarty->assign("back_url", $back_url);

b) Is it any chance to send customers back into ROOT directory instead of subcategory? - Yes :)

PHP Code:


		
			
#back URL when cont. shoping:



x_session_register("back_url");

if ($mode == "add")

{

    $back_url = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'];



    $id = intval($productid);

    if ($id>0) {

        $cat_path = func_query_first_cell("select categoryid_path from $sql_tbl[products_categories], $sql_tbl[categories] where (productid = $id)and(main='Y')and($sql_tbl[products_categories].categoryid=$sql_tbl[categories].categoryid)");

        if (!empty($cat_path)) {

            $cats_path = split("/ *",$cat_path);        

            if (!empty($cats_path[0])) {

                $back_url = "home.php?cat=".$cats_path[0];

            }

        }

    }

}

$smarty->assign("back_url", $back_url);

c) Is it any chance to send customers back into PRODUCT category? - Yes :)

PHP Code:


		
			
#back URL when cont. shoping:



x_session_register("back_url");

if ($mode == "add")

{

    $back_url = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'];



    $id = intval($productid);

    if ($id>0) {

        $cat_path = func_query_first_cell("select categoryid_path from $sql_tbl[products_categories], $sql_tbl[categories] where (productid = $id)and(main='Y')and($sql_tbl[products_categories].categoryid=$sql_tbl[categories].categoryid)");

        if (!empty($cat_path)) {

            $cats_path = split("/ *",$cat_path);        

            if (!empty($cats_path[0])) {

                $last = end($cats_path);

                $back_url = "home.php?cat=".$last;

            }

        }

    }

}

$smarty->assign("back_url", $back_url);

2. Edit URL for "Continue Shopping Button", exm. for Fast Lan Check Out:
Edit file: "skin1/modules/Fast_Lane_Checkout/home_main.tpl", change line:

PHP Code:


		
			
<td>{include file="modules/Fast_Lane_Checkout/big_button.tpl" button_title=$lng.lbl_continue_shopping style="button" href="home.php"}</td>

replaced by this code

PHP Code:


		
			
<td>{include file="modules/Fast_Lane_Checkout/big_button.tpl" button_title=$lng.lbl_continue_shopping style="button" href="`$back_url`"}</td>

PS. I would be grateful for any comments on that decision. It should almost always work.

Works perfectly for returning to previous category from Checkout (not using Fast Lane), in version 4.1.6. with very extensive customizations. Took less than 5 minutes to integrate & test & adjust just a little to

PHP Code:


		
			
{include file="buttons/button.tpl" button_title=$lng.lbl_continue_shopping href=$back_url title=$title style=$style}

Thank you very much for sharing this.
